I got http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127325 for my latest build.
I am very pleased with it. In fact...too much. I went to this card from my 2 7950GT's SLI'd. Now I was using Thermalrights HR-03's coolers on both the 7950's, in passive mode. They worked great and stayed cool w/o the fan.
Now I was sort looking for a cooler upgrade for my 8800GTS. I even heard the HR-03's work on them. Well...the stock cooler is doing great. Its not loud, and seems to keep the card cool...which is odd. I am always ready to rip off the stock coolers on GPU's because they are usually loud and dont cool worth a damn. So...before I toss these HR-03's in the classys am I right in my thoughts? Is the stock coolers on this 8800GTS perfectly fine?
